Stella's P.O.V
Okay, so it's been a week since the whole pregnancy scam, and now everyone at school knows the truth. The magazine company contacted me and apologised, saying that in their next issue they'd address that it was all made up. But until then, I'd just have to live with all the 'congratulations' and all that. I was home studying, when I got a call from Chris.
"Stella you're so stupid!" he said.
"And why is that my dear brother" I said sarcastically.
"You got yourself pregnant, and you can hardly take care of yourself let alone another human being! Have you never heard of protection or something?" He said. Here we go again.
"Chris. Please shut up for once. I'm not pregnant that was a scam made by Riven." I explained.
"Ohhhh. Well good luck, because I told mom!" He laughed, hanging up. And what do you know, the next call I got was from none other than my mom.
"Yes Mom?" I sighed.
"Congratulations sweetie! I can't believe I'm gonna be a grandmother!" My mom squealed.
"Luna? Is that Stella?" My dad said in the background.
"And I can't wait until you get married! So have you thought of baby names? Do you know the gender?" She asked.
"MOM! Calm down. Sorry to disappoint you, but I'm not engaged or pregnant, so please don't go telling everyone that, okay?" I said.
"What a bummer! False alarm Radius!" She said, hanging up. People really do fall for these media stories, don't they?
After those calls, I continued studying and I was so tired.
"How am I supposed to cram all this info into my head?" I sighed to myself. I closed my books and put them away, and decided that was enough for today. I called Bloom and she said that we should all have a lunch date tomorrow, and go roller blading.
The next day
I woke up on my couch, where I was studying last night. How the hell did I end up here? Maybe because it's so comfy that I fell asleep on it. I got up and checked the time, it was two pm.
"Wait a minute, the girls and I are supposed to leave at 2:15. I only have 15 minutes to get ready!" I said to myself, running to the bathroom. I suddenly bumped into Brandon.
"Ow." I said, rubbing my head.
"Sorry Stel, I was.." he started.
"No time for that, I'm late for a date!" I said, going into the bathroom and shutting the door behind me.
"Date? With who?" He asked.
"Relax! Just a casual much date with the girls" I said while brushing my teeth.
"Oh. Do you want some coffee?" He said.
"No time!" I reminded him, as I rushed back into my room and changed. I put on a pair of denim shorts, a black crop top, a red and black flannel shirt over it and a pair of black converse. I pulled my hair into a messy bun and I put on a little makeup. I grabbed my purse and headed for the living room, almost bumping into the TV.
"Stella be careful, you almost broke the TV, and remember I was the one who payed for it!" Brandon said, stopping me at the door.
"Sorry, got to go, bye, love you!" I said quickly, opening the door and running to the parking lot. The girls were waiting outside my car.
"There you are! I was beginning to think you overslept and got up like 20 minutes ago." Tecna said, relieved.
"No, you're right. Thats exactly what happened" I panted.
"Knew it. Anyways, what are we waiting for? Lets go already!" Flora said. I scoured my purse for my keys, and then jammed them into the key hole, but they didn't fit.
"Oh shit. These aren't my car keys, these are Brandon's!" I said.
"Well then use Brandon's car!" Musa said. We walked over to his car, and unlocked it.
"Finally, we can..OMG EWWW!" Flora said, as she opened the door. We came over to see what she was shouting about, and the whole inside and seats where covered in pizza and other fast food.
"ARE YOU KIDDING ME!?" I said, shutting the door in disgust.
"What the hell did they do last night?" Bloom said, shaking her head.
"Stella, what are we gonna do. We need to leave, like now. The park is gonna be too crowded otherwise" Aisha said.
"Think, Stel, think!" I said to myself. Just then, I saw the guys walking out into the parking lot. I ran up to them.
"These are mine thank you very much! Oh and, there are better places to have food fights you know!" I said, grabbing my keys from Brandon's hand and running back to the girls. The guys just stood there confused, looking at each other. Once we finally got there, we got out our roller blades on and Aisha taught us how to skate.
"I think I'm getting the hang of it now!" Bloom said, twirling around.
"Me too!" Musa said.
"Me three!" Flora said.
"Me four!" Tecna added.
"Me f...OW" I said interrupting myself as I clumsily tripped over a helmet that someone left in the middle of the park.
"Stella! Are you okay?" Aisha said, running to me.
"No. I think I broke my butt!" I said.
"Yep. She's okay." Musa laughed.
"Seriously what kind a airhead would leave a helmet in the middle of a park, it's dangerous!" Flora exclaimed. They helped me up, but I fell right to the ground again. I felt really dizzy and light headed.
"MY FOOT! IT HURTS! AND MY WRIST" I screamed, holding my foot. Musa and Bloom took my arms around their shoulders.
"I think we should get it checked. You know, just incase." Tecna said. We went to A and E, and after like 15 minutes we got it checked.
"Well, Miss Stella, according to the x-rays it seems you have fractured your wrist and ankle." The doctor said.
"Wait what? Is it that serious?" I said.
"I'm afraid so. Your wrist can be healed with a cast, but your ankle will need surgery." she said.
"SURGERY?" I exclaimed.
"Don't worry sweetie, you will be given anaesthetics and be put to sleep. We'll put in a screw, stitch it up and you will need to stay in hospital for 2 days, then get a cast when you are dismissed home. I'll be back in 5 minutes, alright?" she said. I nodded as she left.
"Aww, poor Stellie boo" Bloom said sympathetically, hugging me.
"Well look on the bright side, you're butt is perfectly fine!" Musa said.
"We'll stay here for the procedure, but we'll have to leave at night, will you be okay?" Aisha asked.
"Yeah, I think" I smiled.
"I think you should call Brandon here too." Flora said.
"Can you do it? Broken wrist, remember?" I said. She took my phone and called Brandon.
"Hello?" Brandon said.
"Hey, it's me, Flora. I just called to tell you that Stella's in Hospital" She said.
"Hospital? What did she do this time? Did she get into a fight or something?" he asked.
"Nope. We were roller blading and she tripped over a helmet and broke her wrist and ankle. Her wrist needs a cast but her ankle needs surgery so she will need to stay here for 2 days for the procedure." she said.
"Okay, thanks Flora, tell her I'm on my way. bye" He said.
"bye" she said ending the call.
"No need to tell me, it was on speaker" I smiled. The doctor came back and put a cast around my wrist, and I got a black one so that it would go with any outfit. Then, we had to go to the operation room for the procedure.
"You girls can come back here after its completed, in 15 minutes. But, I must warn you beforehand, the anaesthetics can have emotional effects on the patient. So, she'll probably wake up and be really lively and bouncy, or really upset and start crying." she said.
"Okay. Love you Stel" Bloom said, hugging me once more. When the girls left, they gave me the medicine, and I fell asleep. Obviously, I didn't remember the surgery. Once I woke up, I sat up on the bed and I saw the girls and Brandon come in, and then randomly broke into tears.
"Stel, why are you crying?" Brandon said.
"Anaesthetics" Tecna whispered. I didn't know it at the time, so I thought I was crying because of the pain.
"It hurts! It really really hurts!" I cried, hugging him tightly.
"I know, but you'll be okay soon." he said.
"Will you stay with me?" I pouted.
"I''ll be here the whole time" he said, kissing my cheek.
"Sorry Stel, but we have to get going. We'll visit tomorrow, okay?" Musa said.
"Okay. Bye, and make sure to bring me chocolates!" I sniffed.
After they left, I took a nap, and when I woke up again, I was completely back to normal.
"Brandon, I'm hungry." I yawned.
"What do you want to eat?" he asked.
"Can you go across the street and get me a bucket of KFC fried chicken?" I asked.
"Stella..." he started.
"Please?" I said with puppy eyes.
"You know I can't say no to you when you're in Hospital after surgery and have broken bones. I'll be back in 10" he said, getting up.
10 minutes later he came back with a bucket of fried chicken.
"What the heck are you doing?" He asked, putting the chicken down on the table next to me.
"I'm trying to text." I said, with my phone on me knee as I hit the buttons with my nose
"But you have a broken wrist" he said.
"I know, but I have to try!" I said.
"You know you can just use the voice thing, right?" He said.
"Why didn't I think of that before, I just wasted 10 whole minutes hitting my phone on my face!" I said.
"You can do it later, the chicken's getting cold." He laughed.
"Can you feed me?" I asked.
"You have a perfectly functional left hand!" he said.
"My arm is numb because they gave me the anaesthetics injection on this arm!" I said, even though my hand didn't hurt from the injection.
"Fine" he said, feeding me the chicken.
How was that? I wanted Stella to have quite a different reaction to the medicine because in this story she quite wild and outrageous, and tries to hold back her emotions. Obviously, she taking advantage of the situation, so she's being even lazier than usual. I'll update tomorrow hopefully, or within the next 3 days. Also, I woke up this morning from my phone beeping because of notification that you guys have reviewed and faved and stuff, so thanks for that! Keep it coming :P
